Most of us have accepted that the COVID mandates are history. No more masks, distancing, lockdowns, or testing. Natural rights, what’s left of them, are not being infringed by local public health ordinances. The attentive among us know these restrictions are still here but on a Latte break, waiting to return.
But then we discover that some never left.
There are 104 colleges in the US still mandating COVID vaccines for students (faculty exempted) and some have indicated they will never let this go. All the while, they refuse to make sense of their pseudoscience. pic.twitter.com/R9hlVbPbwc

Students required, and faculty exempt? Wow. That’s elitist.
And as you can see from the image in the tweet, two NH colleges are on this list. Franklin Pierce and St Anselm. I went to the source website and pulled in the entire inventory.
Franklin Pierce College requires you to have had the initial dose(s) but does not require boosters – a mandate that applies to Fall 2023 admissions.
St Anselms is the same per an email dated 6/21, according to No College Mandates.com.
You can view the entire list here (google spreadsheet) or our local copy (here .xls), which includes a lot of colleges/universities that never had a vaccine mandate, schools that did and rescinded them, and (of course) those that still have it.
Below I have a different look at some of the schools in the tweet. It’s not complete. I filtered their Excel file, and it pulled the names of 60 offenders from their list (not 104). I may have missed a variable somewhere.
You can see three colleges in MA, one in ME, and two in VT. California is the worst. Pennsylvania. Ohio, Georgia, New York, and New Jersey each have four. Several other states have three. And yes, I suppose it could be worse, but this is bad. It’s 2023. Why are these progressive schools so locked in the past (snicker)?
